You know what?! I think you are on to something. They need a person to represent their enemy. Someone to be that strawman. This gives them the surreal idea that they can shoot and kill that enemy. Somehow that is the only way they can make their "common sense" make sense. If problems are too big or complex, they can't rationalize it. Blaming everything they consider bad on a person is a perfect solution.

This is why minorities are a prime scape goat for politicians.
Why be mad at some faceless corporation/politician, when you can blame the world’s issues on Garry that you see in the supermarket?

Who is this Gary? I hate him already.

That already happens with Satan. Unfortunately, some enterprising evangelists have convinced their congregation that he is not only real, but infecting people the pastor doesn't like.

Strange. They can't actually find this Satan so they have to find real people to blame. It's almost as if they have unfounded beliefs. More scapegoats and strawmen to point at and project on so they don't have to process reality.
